What
The mechanism that scrolls the message list to reveal a specific message was reworked. It now returns a promise that resolves once the target message has actually settled into place — matching height and position across re-renders — rather than retrying a fixed number of times regardless of whether the scroll succeeded. It also includes a give-up timeout and a way to cancel the operation early.
Why
This should make jumping to a message in the transcript more reliable, since Claude Code now waits for confirmation the scroll actually completed instead of guessing based on a retry count.
